HEARING GOD SPEAK THROUGH SABBATH REST (Series 2)

PART 2 of 3

You say why so much talk on Sabbath Rest?  In today’s world there is so much info, so much busyness and business hype it feels like if “you snooze you lose”. Yet, more than ever, we see so much stress related health issues today, burnouts, depression, and broken relationships. Something has to give. So how does sabbath rest fit in? Does it help that God says it is a command and we aren’t taking it serious?  

We are going to look at more thoughts, along with some of mine, from Pastor Neil Olcott’s message preached on September 17, 2017  “What did God intend for His people to hear in the Old Testament when He commanded for them to take a Sabbath?” (Part 2 )

Last week we looked at:

GOD HIMSELF TAKES A REST: The God who never sleeps, who is all-powerful and ever-present, decides to take the day of rest on the Seventh day.  

REST TO GOD IS SERIOUS BUSINESS: A sabbath rest gives us a chance to become conscious of the eternity in our time,and  to live mindful of the presence of God.

And now we will see:  SABBATH REST IS A COMMAND, GOD “BLESSED” AND “SET ASIDE” THE SEVENTH DAY and THE SABBATH REST ALLOWS GOD TO SPEAK TO US FROM HIS CREATION.

As you read see what you are hearing from God when it comes to God’s Sabbath Rest in your life. (more…)
